Not good, but as a temporary shelter for the winter months, it could be a good thing. But parameters need to be set to keep the area from being a zone for panhandlers, drug abusers, and malcontents. Get the inhabitants on a schedule of work to clean up the area. Picking up trash, painting over graffiti, washing down the streets. Kind of like a Job Corp for the Homeless. If they refuse, they can leave the area, but malingering will not be allowed. Maybe set up bonuses for those who get the most done. And maybe, just maybe, promote the best to permanent jobs in the city, with housing. Just an idea. I'm probably not wording it right, but it could turn into a good program going forward.
